Abstract

Padang Serai Community Health Center data for 2023 shows that there are 56 residents suffering from diabetes mellitus (DM) and 20 residents classified as prediabetic based on the results of monthly fasting blood sugar checks. Based on these problems, community service (PKM) was carried out in the form of a Healthy Living Assistance Program with the aim of providing motivation to residents to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Program activities are divided into three stages, namely: program socialization including how to fill out a healthy living logbook, education via WhatsApp groups, and evaluation. Before and after participating in the program, residents' health parameters were measured. Residents' implementation of a healthy lifestyle is evaluated based on logbook recording. The program activities, which lasted for 3 weeks, were attended by residents, most of whom were mothers with a body mass index classified as obese. The PKM results showed that after implementing a healthy lifestyle there was an improvement in health parameters, namely a decrease in fasting blood sugar levels, total cholesterol, blood pressure and body weight. It can be concluded that the Healthy Living Assistance Program has succeeded in encouraging residents to live healthily in preventing and controlling DM

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases that most people suffer from. Hypertension is known as the silent killer because this disease can cause death without causing symptoms because sufferers are not aware that they have hypertension. Headaches can result in poor blood circulation to the brain and if left untreated can cause stroke and even death. One effort to manage hypertension non-pharmacologically is acupressure therapy. Stimulation of acupressure points can stimulate the release of histamine as a mediator of blood vessel vasodilation. This process results in lowering blood pressure and headaches by causing vasodilation and decreasing blood vessel resistance. The community service methods used are education, blood pressure checks and providing acupressure therapy which will be carried out in RW 2, Sumber Jaya Village, Kampung Melayu District. After carrying out community service activities targeting people who took part in posbindu activities, the results showed that there was an increase in public knowledge about the management of hypertension and the application of acupressure therapy to reduce blood pressure and reduce coconut pain in hypertension sufferers. It is hoped that the public, especially hypertension sufferers, can apply acupressure therapy to lower blood pressure and reduce coconut pain in hypertension sufferers.
